Pleasently surprised.
My game never left.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
Welcome back.
But my experiences on INFINITY (idk why we are capitalizing, but I will follow your lead) do not match yours in the slightest. I wasn't having problems finding teams on INFINITY back in January, or in August, or now.

LoL. Sorry. I capitlize out of habit. I am a programmer and i have to capitilize certain words or phrases so that the machine i am programming for will understand certain words. I now have a really bad habit of capitilzing key words.

(Yes, it's a standard in VB, too, but I didn't program in VB professionally. My taskmasters insisted I start when they started paying me for it.)
It looked to me like the population dipped a bit this summer, but it was with the release of I16, well before double XP, that things seemed to pick up in a big way to me.
I also agree that the super side-kicking is one of the best features ever. Makes teaming with my friends much easier.

Super-Sidekicking is a great feature. No more "sidekick tetris" as one of the developers called it.
The old-school sidekicking and exemplaring were great ideas to span the level divide that exists in MMOs. SSK is even better. No need to get fillers or middles for me and friends to form a team. Fewer worries about the lowbies being able to navigate the high level zone without getting sniped or ganked.
1) Form team.
2) Kick butt.
3) Get butt kicked.
4) Laugh.
5) Goto 2.
Is this game turning around? I've had my doubts and reservations, but generally, it's always headed in the right direction.
www.paragonwiki.com is a great source of information for this game.

I have been playing COX since shorty after COV went live(I 6) and i play COV exclusivly. I took a break from the game in early January of this year and came back in August. I play mostly on 2 servers...FREEDOM AND INFINITY.
When i left the game FREEDOM was very populated and INFINITY was a ghost town. On FREEDOM it became harder harder to get on mission teams past level 40 because all anyone wanted to do was farm the NEMESIS mission. This is a big reason why i took a break from the game since i am not a fan of farming.
When i came back in August things were even worse. This time AE farms were all that anyone would do. INFINITY was even less populated than before. Even FREEDOM'S population was way down from January. I decided to stay because i was really looking foward to I16.
When I16 went live the AE farms went away but the poulations were still way down. Then a funny thing happened.....after double XP weekend things started to pick up. Now there seem to be alot more people on INFINITY and on FREEDOM people actually want to do missions past level 40. Has anyone else noticed this too??
I know alot of people don't like the new sidekick feature but i think its awesome. It is so much easier to put teams together now. I also love the new difficulty settings. I am leveling faster than ever.
I think this game is really starting to turn around. What are everyone elses thoughts??
